Model Pinder first evictee on CBB

Lucy Pinder told Davina McCall she had struggled to get on with rapper Coolio

Glamour model Lucy Pinder has become the first evictee on Celebrity Big Brother 2009 after losing a public vote in a head-to-head with Ulrika Jonsson.

Pinder, 23, who received 57% of the votes, told presenter Davina McCall she had been evicted because "I haven't got my clothes off".

She and Jonsson were up for eviction after housemates chose to save former boyband star Ben Adams from the vote.

All three were nominated by the head of the house, Terry Christian.

I'm probably quite boring because I'm just quite normal and I don't like the sound of my own voice that much

He accused TV presenter Jonsson of having a big ego and said Pinder was the least talented of the celebrities.

After leaving the house, Pinder told McCall that Jonsson had deserved to win through because she was "really warm and lovely" and "a top bird".

"I'm probably quite boring because I'm just quite normal and I don't like the sound of my own voice that much," she added.

'Not malicious'

Earlier, Pinder had said she wanted to leave the Big Brother house after being driven to distraction by fellow housemate Coolio's incessant rapping.

She told McCall she had struggled to get on with the rapper.

"Hopefully he's not malicious but... he kind of jokes to a lot of women that he's going to come over and elbow them in the face and it's like, you're a very big guy that we don't know and you're kind of being threatening towards us."

Former weathergirl Jonsson shored up her place in the house when her duet with actor Verne Troyer proved a hit on the show's website.

As part of the house shopping task, Big Brother set Jonsson and Troyer the challenge of performing Lionel Ritchie and Diana Ross's classic Endless Love for the housemates.

They were told they would pass their part of the task if there were more than 10,000 views of a video of their performance on the Big Brother website.

The pair's rendition proved a huge hit - with 81,483 views by the end of the challenge.

But the shopping task was failed after other celebrities did not manage to pass their parts of the challenge.

Coolio, Pinder and Shameless actress Tina Malone were told to stake out the garden, paparazzi-style, to photograph non-housemate celebrities.

Stars including 1980s pop star Chesney Hawkes and model Michelle Marsh were lifted above the wall in a cherry-picker as the stars snapped away.

But the housemates failed to spot former Celebrity Big Brother finalist Michael Barrymore waving as he was lifted over the wall.
